Welcome back to the Bhagwat Gita podcast! In this episode, we will explore the fourteenth chapter of the Gita, titled "Gunatraya Vibhaga Yoga - The Yoga of the Three Qualities of Material Nature". This chapter is a detailed analysis of the three modes of material nature - sattva (goodness), rajas (passion), and tamas (ignorance) - and their influence on individual consciousness. Lord Krishna teaches that all beings are influenced by these three modes, which affect our thoughts, actions, and perceptions. The chapter also explores the nature of spiritual transcendence, and how one can rise above the limitations of material nature by cultivating the qualities of goodness and detachment. Join us as we delve into the profound teachings of this chapter, and discover how they can help us understand the workings of the mind and the world around us. By embracing the principles of Gunatraya Vibhaga Yoga, we can learn to cultivate a more balanced and harmonious approach to life, and ultimately attain spiritual liberation. Hosted on Acast.
